Ally's POV
My mom was done cooking. She made lasagna. My favorite. The neighbors arrived and I answered the door and let them in. We sat at the table. It went my mom across from her was me and right next to my mom was Jacobs mom then across from her was Jacob and then our dads where at the end of the table. We all started eating and talking. "So ally are you and Jacob friends at school?" His mom asked, "well um-" I get cut off by Jacobs hand on my thigh which gives me instant chills. I think he's doing this to make sure I say yes. "Yes." I say "that's nice." She replies then I jut smile and nod my head. Jacob then removed his hand from my thigh.
*after dinner*
"Honey why don't you and Jacob hang out in your room." My mom says "okay." I say we then go up the stairs. "So why do you always put your hand on my thigh" I ask Jacob "because." He replies "because why?" "Just because." "Jacob tell me why." No reply "Jacob." No reply again "Jacob." I say raising my voice a little "BECAUSE I LIKE YOU!" He yells I just sat there shocked because if he liked me then why would he bully me like I don't get it. "Okay if you like me then why are you bullying me?" I ask him "because Mark started it all. He made me flirt with Chloe he made me start bullying you and if I didn't he would do even worse stuff to you like keep you held hostage and even torture you and I didn't want that happening to you." He says almost tearing up "well what is going to happen if you stop bullying me what will mark do?" I ask him "I don't know I just don't want anything happening to you so I'll just stop hanging out with Mark and I guess it'll stop." "Jacob I don't this happening anymore Jacob did you see what happened me today you think I want this to keep happening. I want you to confront Mark or..." "Or what" "or I will." "No you can't do that he could totally do who knows what to you." "But Jacob if you really cared you would do something." "What if I didn't care." "Then I would ask you to leave." I say ending to conversation. He then walks out of the room. I just sit there on my bed thinking about what just happened and if everything will get better.
